2) new 2007 tournament forums - IBF decides to re-shuffle some of the 2007 events, I have updated the 2007 Tournaments forums accordingly.

Badminton Central nice message when down !!!

Thank you for updating to the latest version of the software and updating the BWF 2007 Tournaments Calendar.

And it was a nice (not silly) message that you announced. I thought it was excellent.

For those who have missed the message, this was what it said......

============ start message ============

BadmintonCentral.com forum is currently down for site maintainance, will be back shortly.

we apologize for the inconvenience caused...

in your service,

- BadmintonCentral.com staff

the usage silly message:

While you wait, how about pulling your racket from your racket bag, take a piece of silk cloth and carefully wipe off all the shuttle marks on it? after that, take your rackets and practice some overhead swings. make sure you rotate your body, pronate your wrist, and follow-through in a very smooth and fluid motion. for extra credit, make sure your motion is relaxed but tenses up at the moment of impact. please be extra careful if you have a low ceiling.
============ end message ============

This should be a useful function and prevent people from quoting someone, and replying four separate times to different sections.

Can this work for quoting different posts? It has often happened that people have replied to responses from different members by posting another post, where as they could have just undertaken more than one quote.

It's quite neat..

and then click "quote" to reply with quotes. then the quoted reply will contain all the posts that you selected.

i just did that for this reply.

...yep, pretty easy, as all we have to click is the icon(of the selected posts)..However, long thread could be a bit tedious but it's still a time-saver which beats the manual highlighting-copy-pasting process..
